Nez expressif et exubérant de fleurs mauves, de fruits rouges légèrement réchauffés, avec une touche de bois en second plan. La bouche est fruité, large et concentrée, mais appuyé par une acidité juste. Elle nous donne des fruits noirs bien mûres et des effluves de réglisse noire. Un peu chaud à 15% par contre.

A pleasant, New World styled Priorat with some Old World substance. Juicy, fruit-forward, tooth-staining, and fairly hot. Not a lot of depth, but there is a lot of it and that counts for something. 88-89.

Really a lot more fruit-forward and much softer than I've come to expect from Priorat lately. Meant to drink younger and be able to pop and pour quicker...not super quick, but quicker. Fresher, more berry forward with a little ripe hay earthiness. Polished and tighter grained in texture.
25th anniversary of this production.

Consistent with previous notes. Perhaps a little more depth this time, but oh so very hot, even if the wine wears it somewhat well. 89-90.
